Oh yeah. D&D could have easily turned J/B's relationship into some platonic buddy comedy but they didn't choose to go that route and that really says a lot to me. I also think that in TWOW we are going to get deep into the 'Beauty & the Beast' part of J/B's story so no, people are SO wrong when they say that a J/B romance is solely a D&D invention. The books are leading up to that and that 'Beauty & the Beast' GRRM quote pretty much gave it away that J/B will eventually become romantic.

*Chicky*

Hehehe...ASoS, AFfC, and ADwD pretty much gave it away too.

The beauty and the beast quote gave me so much hope.
And yeah, the textual evidence is there as well.

Aw, I just read that article you posted on Tumblr about unreleased Asoiaf chapters, Chicky (George R.R. Martin wants to publish 'ASoIaF' unreleased chapters: Our 6 dream suggestions - Zap2it | News & Features). What I wouldn't give to read the Brienne chapter Martin decided to cut from ADWD.

Ugh, yeah. I know there's basically no chance, but I'd love to see a cut Bri chapter. Oh well, there's always TWoW. Can't wait to read it in 2024...

We have a saying in Italian, "let's laugh so as not to cry", which perfectly applies to my feelings about George's pace in writing these books.

Btw, I have been reading speculation on my dash in Tumblr and it seems when Gwen and Nik where spotted in Antrim a week or so ago they were nowhere near Belfast... I'd say this raises the probabilities of them filming something together in some secluded location. Now I will be SO disappointed if we don't get even one scene...

ETA: this sounds awesome: http://www.thewrap.com/game-of-thron...ies-exclusive/

Fingers crossed.

And there is also a twitter or instagram post where the user said something about finally getting a picture because GoT finished filming Iron Island scenes. It was in Co. Antrim too! Seems like the major sites like WiC.net and WotW.com never got wind of the filming of scenes in Antrim. They focused more on Croatia and Spain.

So I am with you I hope Nik and Gwen filmed scenes together when they were in Antrim.

How amazing is that Nik wrote a play and have him and possibly Gwen star in it! We'd have more pics of them!!

Btw, title suggestions?

FlowerOfCarnage

That's so awesome that Gwen and Nik are doing a non-GoT project together! Just more proof of their close friendship.

I'm trying to keep my expectations low now when it comes to a J/B reunion in the show. I know that's hard when you see pictures of them taking breaks together in Belfast but for my own sanity, I have to. The show is going a completely different direction so it's best not to expect things that haven't been confirmed, that way if the reunion doesn't happen next season, it won't sting as bad.

I like these two quotes from Bryan Cogman:

But if anybody has any other suggestions, feel free to add!

"...and he found in Brienne a soul mate that he’ll never recover from." - Alex Graves

I particularly love this one:



I know, I need to keep my expectations low, but boy, isn't that hard. You'd say i'd learn something from my experience with season 4 and yet here I am again.

iram

I second that.

*Chicky*

Oh, guys, could we not do the Alex Graves quote? In fact, I'd love it if we made sure none of his quotes were even on the thread title suggestions list in the OP. Some people may not remember his name as the director of Season 4's sept scene, or know (or remember) some of what he was quoted saying afterward. I personally can't stand the comments he made after 4x03, and I know I'm not alone there. I found his lack of understanding of rape to be disgusting. He's a very controversial figure in fandom, to put it mildly, and I'd hate to have our lovely little thread in any way associated with him and his views.

I'll even vote for the Cogman quote. Anything else. Anything else from the list in the OP.

blatfink

Didn't he call Jaime a psycopath and Brienne a lesbian? He is amazing as a director and he has given a lot of great J/B comments as well but I don't think he has read the books.

How about:

"Because he felt his D stir beneath the bathwater" ?

Yikes I hope that is allowed although I did search around here also and the term 'she just wants the D' was not censored in another thread of another TV show. I also checked threads 1 to 30 I don't think the quote has been used.

Or.. "Unbidden his thoughts went to Brienne of Tarth?"

But that would be a lovely title for Season 5 I think

Or these:

NCW looks great.!!!!!!!
There is an honesty to them and there's a purity in a way is a good quote.

About Alex's grave quote: If offends anybody to use it as a thread title, I agree not to use it.
But, maybe we can keep it in the OP, without saying that he was the one that said it?. Is a good definition about Jaime/Brienne's relationship

So, my vote for next thread title goes to: I'll find her. For Lady Catherine... and for you..
